Recently, the number of low-priced products has increased, robot vacuum cleaners . I was surprised to see that the other day Nitori was selling an original product for about 20,000 yen.

I was reluctant to live alone because the room wasn't very large and I didn't have to worry about vacuuming, so I bought the "iRobot Braava 380j" online for just over 30,000 yen at the recommendation of a friend.


From the conclusion, I am very satisfied! However, I haven't compared it with other products, so I won't push hard.

In this article, I would like to tell you about the benefits of using a robot vacuum and the changes that have occurred in your life, rather than the unique robot vacuum. Please note that this is an example of introducing with almost no prior information and switching from a general canister type vacuum cleaner.

6 benefits of robot vacuums

1. Do not put anything on the floor

This is probably the biggest change in behavior. You will be able to create a room and lifestyle that is robot vacuum cleaner first , without putting anything on the floor as much as possible.

Apart from furniture that is difficult to move, the power of the robot vacuum cleaner will not be exhibited unless the other "things that are temporarily placed there (also called leaving them out)" are removed. This made me always conscious of not cluttering the room.

2. You don't have to worry about noise

Since it is almost silent, it can be operated in an apartment building or at night. It seems that ordinary vacuum cleaners are now quite quiet, but ...

The important thing in this regard is to reduce stress . The time lag between feeling "don't get messy" and performing cleaning can be reduced to zero, so you don't have to suffer the hazy stress that might have occurred during that time. You can press the start button to sleep.

3. Space saving

Vacuum cleaner with complicated shape. It was tall and difficult to store, but robot vacuum cleaners are generally box-shaped and can be stored in any space. Brava 380j is about the volume of two tissue boxes.

4. No need to ventilate

This may depend on the model. Braava is a cleaning sheet that does not expel air, so you can use it without worrying about the weather and time when you do not want to open the window. I am very happy in midsummer and midwinter.

5. Notice that I was giving up

Some people may think that using convenient home appliances is a “cut-out of household chores”. But by letting the robot vacuum clean the floor, you'll have more room to clean the previously unwieldy parts of the drawers, such as organizing drawers and cleaning windows.


It wasn't that hard ... I had to give up unconsciously while I was vacuuming myself. I think that not only cleaning but also hobbies and studying, etc., I have more time to spare and finally become conscious. Is this a point that you will not notice unless you actually experience it?

Personally, I like to clean myself while I'm vacuuming the robot. I feel like I'm cooperating, saying, "I'll leave it here, I'll get rid of it."

6. Cute

This was the first surprise without a joke. It's cute, isn't it?


When I bumped into the legs of the table and stopped moving to see what was going on around me, I felt like I wanted to cheer for the irritability of watching over my "first use". I'm sorry, "he says. An emotion that I have never had in home appliances was born.



Also, Braava's blue light flashes when reading the positional relationship, which is very nice like the eyes of a giant warrior appearing in Laputa.

summary

The above 6 points are the merits that came to my mind within a few days of using it. If you continue to use it, you may feel other advantages, or conversely, you may find disadvantages. But overall, there are definitely many benefits! Please carefully examine the compatibility between the room and the model before introducing it.
